Background

South Luangwa Responsible Community Project (SLRCP) is a novel local non-profit organization initiative to raise Community Awareness through practical skills development and support to the community and conservation engagement across communities leaving within the jurisdiction of these Game management Areas (GMAs).

Of interest to this Project are GMAs in the Mambwe district of Zambia, which is located in Eastern Province. With a population of nearly 100, 000 Mambwe district is made up of six chiefdoms (namely Chiefs, Jumbe Kakumbi, Msoro, Malama, Makhanya and Nsefu). Communities residing in these chiefdoms have continuously endured risky and poverty-stricken lives, where crop harvest is often destroyed in a single night by elephants.

Their lives have been riddled with poverty at the expense of sustaining wildlife for posterity. This Project appreciates government, conservation and civil society organization trying to uplift the living standard of the people in the project area. SLRCP notices with great concerns the lack of alternative livelihoods being implemented that will compliment government efforts in conservation of the natural resources vice versa the welfare of humans in the project area. This project is here to fill in the gaps left by other conservation players to developing a well targeted community intervention that builds capacity on livelihoods and delivers benefits towards poverty stricken rural people sharing their lives with wild animals. Vision Envisioning a world in which conservation supports the people and the people supports conservation.
